Geer and Koenig will join Tennessee in the 2013-14 academic year. Both are proven power hitters who will enhance a potent UT squad that averaged 6.64 runs per game (tied for sixth in the nation) and finished as the national runner-up in 2013.

"These are two of the best athletes we have ever recruited," Tennessee softball co-head coach Ralph Weekly said. "Both have home run power. Megan Geer is a speedy second baseman and outfielder who hits a lot of long balls and bats third for the So Cal Athletics. Taylor Koenig is a third baseman very much like UT alum and All-American Tonya Callahan. She has legitimate power and soft hands at third base. We are very proud of both of their accomplishments."
